We can still bring them back. But the problem with offering them arbitration is that, if in fact they were to accept arbitration, we would be locked into a number that would not give us the flexibility that we have to have to do some other things. Plus, it would delay the process of knowing what those numbers actually would be, possibly until February. So for us to be able to do our business and try to improve our club in other ways, it would kind of handcuff us because there would be some uncertainty with what we can do.”<BR/><BR/>About Eaton- “He’s still part of the club at this particular time,” Amaro said. “If he’s in spring training he will be competing for one of the spots in our rotation. That said, he hasn’t proven to us that he’s a lock by any means. Frankly, we’ll have to see how things shape up as far as rotation is concerned. Some of it may depend on whether we have Jamie back or someone else.”GM-Carsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06805746782773160139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24940205.post-76380211425401751322008-12-03T08:35:00.000-05:002008-12-03T08:35:00.000-05:00Happy birthday to Chad Durbin and Paul Byrd.Happy birthday to Chad Durbin and Paul Byrd.GM-Carsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06805746782773160139noreply@blogger.com
